Mold Installation for
Model 22,16,1600
We have found in recent months that block machine operators are installing the mold
improperly. This improper installation practice will cause unnecessary wear on mold hanger
bracket and the die supports.
1. Assemble the mold on a very flat surface, such as a machined flat steel table. Do not
assemble molds on steel pallets from the machine or on wooden surfaces.
2. Inspect mold hanger brackets for flatness by using a straight edge. Replace any brackets
showing signs of wear on mounting surface.
3. To make sure the mold hanger brackets are installed correctly, measure all four corners
using a dial caliper, as shown, using the outer holes. Verify measurement of all four
corners are the same.
